I have several workunits with a finished status but was reported "Client Error" and didn't get credit.

Can anyone tell me what was happening? I mean, my computer crunch workunits but no credit was granted.

Credits are only issued for valid results.

I checked two WU with Client errors and found
- exit code 1073807364 (0x40010004)
This is usually due to a graphics crash. Boinc graphic are still problematic with Vista. Many of the Vista issues will hopefully be addressed with Boinc V6.x. This version will also introduce a new method of handling graphics.

so does it means that there will be no credits at all for those workunits even that my computer have spent some time crunching?
well.. that is just too bad..

2) The host CPID. This unfortunately is going to be different on each install. You might be able to do surgery on client_state.xml and get it set to an old value.

I've looked at the client_state.xml but could not find my previous host CPID number to change to.
But anyway, there is actually an option in my account setting to merge computers. I've merge the computers.

This is the key line to look for in the log. This means that the server got a request for work but cannot provide any work at the moment because there simply is no work to hand out.

This is also the reason why I used to set "Computer is connected to the Internet about every = 10 days" so that I could download extra WUs to be ready for my PC to crunch. And I don't have to wait (5 hours is too long for a boinc-addicted person to wait) because of no work from project.

It is such an addictive thing that I get so frustrated when my computers are in idle. And I am not considering to participate in another project. seti@home rulez!

But recently, the Boinc (5.8.16) didn't download any WU even the available WUs in my computer are running out.
Try to update, but still won't download any WU. Only download WU after Boinc finished crunching the last WU.

It always opens in a new window for me, so that sounds like a browser preference.
Which browser are you using?

In my Mozilla Seamonkey (probably the same options are in Firefox) preferences, Navigator, Tabbed browsing, I can set if applications and the browser should open new windows or use the present window.

*whoops*..
silly me.. case closed then.. thanks Ageless

When I click the links to Web sites within the BOINC Manager, i.e. the "SETI@home", "Message boards", "Help", "Your account", "Your preference"... etc... it always uses my last opened browser to view the link. Sometime I was in a middle of writing an email through a webmail, when I click the links, it uses this browser where I was suppose to type my mail.

Perhaps you can set it to opening the links in a new window (launching new browser).
